How to dump the list of all processes with their DLL files that are running on my Windows 8 system? I want save names of all running processes and DLL into a file.

You can dump all processes with DLL files they are using on your Windows 8 using the "tastlist.exe" command as shown in this tutorial:

1. Enter "cmd.exe" in the Start button search box. Then click "cmd.exe" in the suggested match list.

2. Enter "tasklist.exe /M *" at the prompt. You will see a list of all running processes with their DLL files, also called modules. Some of them represent one or more services:

Image Name                     PID Modules

3. Type in "tasklist.exe /M * > C:\fyicenter\running_processes_with_dll.txt" in the command window. The output will be stored in a file.

Guess how many DLL files are used by the explorer.exe process? There are 221 DLL files used by the explorer.exe process!

By the way, explorer.exe is the Windows Program Manager or Windows Explorer. It manages the Windows Graphical Shell including the taskbar, desktop, and File Manager. By removing this process the graphical interface for Windows will disappear.
